I have several friends who want to buy amounts between 10k and 200k.  Some of them are in the southern California, and some of them are in Malta.  What are the current best ways to buy large amounts?  What is going on with MtGox?  How fast will they be able to buy on gox with the current AML hold up?  Does that just affect withdrawls, or deposits and trading too?

I have several friends who want to buy amounts between 10k and 200k.  Some of them are in the US, and some of them are in the EU.  What are the current best ways to buy large amounts?  What is going on with MtGox?  How fast will they be able to buy on gox with the current AML hold up?  Does that just affect withdrawls, or deposits and trading too?

mtgox is the deepest market which means that large orders will cause the price to move less than on smaller exchanges. Mtgox is definitely your best bet unless you can find someone on localbitcoins.

If one can not confer upon another a right which he does not himself first possess, by what means does the state derive the right to engage in behaviors from which the public is prohibited?

But then again there is a huge number of people waiting for their account to be confirmed and verified. It may take your friends quite some time.

I would not trust Mtgox's rate if you are a bulk buyer. The best way to do the exchange is person to person in a public place, I wouldn't trust anyone with anything near $100K online.

Agreed.  For $100k, the travel costs are definitely worth the peace of mind.

As I understand it, you can still deposit and trade BTC on Mt Gox without being verified. You are just limited in the daily withdrawals you can make.

There is a 50k USD limit.
Anyway, I would trust mtgox more than a person to person meetup for 100k.

My anger against what is wrong in the Bitcoin community is productive:
Bitcointa.lk - Replace "Bitcointalk.org" with "Bitcointa.lk" in this url to see how this page looks like on a proper forum (Announcement Thread)

There's also the recently reopened Tradehill exchange, catering for those with meaningful money (and excludes paupers).

If I wanted to buy $100 000 worth of bitcoins, I'd probably use an exchange and I would split the money into seveal seperate transactions.

Gox is the only exchange which can deal with that volume normally. There are issues with public exchanges however.

With research,you should be able to find a P2P private seller , and face to face meeting (make suitable pre-meeting checks etc..) will be best.

Send $100K by Western Union in Ukraine !
Seems legit

Lost coins only make everyone else's coins worth slightly more. Think of it as a donation to everyone.
it has lots of buttery taste..
